JDL36200 - 200 Amp Circuit Breaker

JDL36200 - 200 Amp Circuit Breaker

For the JDL36200, one of the first details worth checking is the conductor range. This 200A, three-pole PowerPacT J-Frame circuit breaker uses AL250JD line and load terminals that accept 3/0 AWG through 350 kcmil aluminum or copper conductors. The breaker measures 7.5 inches high, 4.09 inches wide, and 3.4 inches deep, giving you concrete dimensions to compare with the equipment already in place. An integral push-to-trip feature allows manual operation of the trip mechanism.

Key Features and Benefits

• 200A, three-pole J-Frame configuration: Provides clearly defined electrical and physical specifications for compatible distribution equipment.
• Thermal-magnetic protection: Provides overload and short-circuit protection without relying on an electronic trip unit.
• Lugs on the line and load sides: The connection arrangement is clearly specified to facilitate compatibility checks.
• AL250JD terminals: Accept 3/0 AWG through 350 kcmil aluminum or copper conductors.
• Integral push-to-trip button: Provides a convenient way to trip the circuit breaker manually.
• 80% continuous current rating: Clearly documented for application and compatibility checks.
• HACR rated: HACR classification is included in the manufacturer specifications.

Material Compliance and Certifications

The JDL36200 carries a CE mark and is certified to UL, CSA, and NOM standards. Applicable standards listed by the manufacturer include UL, CSA, NEMA, NOM-003-SCFI-2000, and IEC 60947-2. The front cover carries an IP40 rating, and the breaker is specified for pollution degree 3 under IEC 60947-1.

Where It Works Best

The JDL36200 is suited to compatible distribution equipment that requires a 200A, three-pole PowerPacT J-Frame circuit breaker with thermal-magnetic protection and lug connections on both the line and load sides. The AL250JD terminal arrangement and 3/0 AWG through 350 kcmil aluminum/copper conductor range are particularly important details when evaluating the breaker for an existing installation.
